Description

It would be awesome if the `.chalice/config.json` file supported [JSON5](https://json5.org/), because then inline comments could be added to the file, and other JSON5 features could also be used.

Research direction

Start by locating how .chalice/config.json is parsed and validated in the Chalice codebase. Check the existing configuration tests and determine how JSON5 comments and other syntax should be accepted without breaking current configuration behavior; done means valid JSON5 configuration files load successfully.
